Some of the clearing banks will exit the Bahamas and Caribbean because they can no longer extract those outrageous interest rates and other fees from their customers. RBC has admitted that the loan market in the Bahamas has virtually disappeared and so they have taken to closing branches, charging outrageous fees and reducing staff levels. The staff that remain will eventually become overburdened, fatigued and unable to perform their duties. Some will quit their jobs in self preservation. The least of RBC's concern seem to be the faustration of customers due to poor service. They already admitted that they make no money of most of the services they provide and so their message is 'you can leave when you want to.' Will they and other banks eventually exit from the Bahamas and the Caribbean?

stop drooling in ya dreams, y'all PLP's are so shallow minded and backward thinking.

Puerto Rico is a Caribbean island and ***unincorporated U.S. territory***. The Bahamas is still a part of the Caribbean and a sister country to Dominica. Most of what Minnis has pledged thus far to this country does not come directly out of the taxpayer pocket. In fact by bringing students here (only with immigration 'passes and education in the public or private system may result in greater benefits for this country. An while there is pain and suffering here in this country there are few, if any who hasn't received *any *assistance. The best way to help most is to get the economy moving, to create jobs, to get people employed and allow them to take care of themselves eventually.

What John Rolle failed to tell you is that the Central Bank of the Bahamas is owned by a small group of private bankers as is every central bank around the world and the US's Federal Reserve. Their intention is to control the entire world economy as they almost do so they get pissed with people like Sebas Bastian, Flowers and other web shop owners whose finances are not yet under their control. So they squeeze John Rolle by his testicles to get the web shops to comply. The Bible speaks of this one world economy that will be under the control of the wicked one. We see it unfolding even as we speak. No one will be able to buy or sell unless they are a part of that system.
